Yes, I make them all good, and Yes, I do self-insure.

Anything over a certain amount I send by private carrier, UPS or Fedex, with tracking number that both parties can watch ... NEVER had a problem there !!!

I wouldn't put ANYTHING in the hands of the USPS that I wouldn't just writeoff if it didn't get there !!

I am still awaiting a successful USPS INS claim story .... ???
